JetNation Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 The Jets selected safeties in the 1st two rounds of the 2017 NFL draft (Jamal Adams, Marcus Maye). Reports from OTAs today indicate that Calvin Pryor was a no-show. OTAs are voluntary but if you are hoping to keep your job you really should “volunteer” to be there. Day 1 of Jets OTAs. No sign of safety Calvin Pryor — Manish Mehta (@MMehtaNYDN) May 23, 2017 I have not spotted Calvin Pryor on the field yet. Reminder that OTAs are voluntary #NYJ — Brian Costello (@BrianCoz) May 23, 2017 Hopefully this is nothing, but it is worth watching because the Jets had so many locker room issues last year.

Bleedin Green Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 You'd have to think this was sorted out with the team, because there would have to be a special level of stupid for an underachiever to think he can get away with this kind of crap. Voluntary or not, he obviously has a lot to prove this year, if not to the Jets, to other teams in the NFL, if he wants to continue his career.

It is premature and he might just have a family thing, but... these coaches are idiots and don't like him. There is a good chance he will be cut. If that is the case, it is in his best interest to be cut now rather than on the eve of the season when he will have to latch on somewhere.

section314 Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 If my team declined my 5th year option, I would have gotten in the best shape of my life, been the first guy at camp, and make them regret their decision for the rest of their lives. The drafting of two guys who play my position would have been the icing on the cake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that is the case, it is in his best interest to be cut now rather than on the eve of the season when he will have to latch on somewhere. Given that his contract is fully guaranteed, the Jets have no incentive to cut him unless it reaches the point that they are actually better off without him than with him, given the cost of a replacement would ultimately mean them spending more money for him to not be there. If he starts trying to actively convince them of that, he'll probably convince the rest of the NFL the same thing in the process. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
varjet Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 Pryor's salary is guaranteed for 2017. If the Jets trade him he goes to whatever team is willing to pony up a draft pick and assumes his salary without . That may not be the best team for his future. If he gets cut Pryor can cut a deal with another team that he thinks he is a fit with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree but you would have to think with his career on the line and a scant amount of good tape on him as of now, he would move heaven and earth to attend OTA's to give the right appearance and to work on his craft. basically not only is he not that good of a player but also not that bright as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
